Around here, all the dealerships pay their mechanics commission......

it's good and bad, good cause it gives them an incentive to get the work done........

bad, cause it also gives them an incentive to get it done as fast as possible to move onto the next job,time is money to them, also,encourages them to "find" other "problems" with a car to log more labor hours on it......

When I go to a dealer, I always talk to the mechanic about the problem and what they plan to check and do, after a few minutes they usually realize I know a llittle something about cars and don't try to BS me..........
Now, my wife is a different story, they have told her so much BS and she didn't have a clue what they were talking about and they knew it.....
